Well i jsut got into breeding rats.. the females i brought home from the pet store 3 of them were pregnant..

well the first female had all 12 of her babies and they lived. She had them 15 min after i brought her home
the second one just had her litter today.. only 4 made it??? I dont know why. Maybe it was the stress of the move. I have moved her twice since i got her home.. the wierd thing is there was blood in the bin about 2 days ago like she was going to be starting labor but she didnt. the babies looked term and they had part of the imbilical cord attached.. One did look premature and the sack was still on it..


I am thinking it was the stress that may have done this.. what do you all think?


the third female is about to pop herself.. she is making nests and looking fat.. I hope all hers make it

let me know what you all think
Thanks
